WTF is THAT?!?

Sorry, looks like CRAP!

A trucker driving along on the freeway notices a road sign in the distance that reads 'Low Bridge Ahead.' 

Sure enough, the trucker gets stuck under the bridge. Cars are backed up for miles. 

Finally, a police officer arrives at the scene. The cop gets out of his cruiser and walksaround to the truck driver. He puts his hands on his hips and remarks, "Looks like you got stuck, huh?" 

The trucker replies sarcastically, "No, officer, actually I was delivering this bridge and ran out of gas

Here's your sign!

Glad to hear that you're doing well Tracy, and congratulations on the new rig!

By the way, your current pic reminds me of Dusty Hill of ZZ Top fame! Should leave it!

Reminded me of this video…

Truck goes airborn.

Now to really answer your question, buy and cook your own food. A small cooler/refrigerator, a microwave and possibly a crockpot/slow cooker and you can save tons of money.

From what I've been reading here lately, this really isn't an option if you plan on going to Prime. Aren't they switching over to the LW tractors for OTR? There's not enough room in those for a refrigerator and/or microwave. Or is there?

Littlejoe, you hit the nail on the head! What school will you be going to?

Haven't heard about the one your going to. I was thinking McFatter Tech., but now I've got to look into Sheridan Tech. (you've piqued my curiosity). That's IF I can get funding through WIA. If not, I'll be trying to get into one of the Company CDL courses.

As far as a permanent "home address", I was thinking that once I got hired by a company, I'd find a super-cheap efficiency or other rental property located within a few miles from a Company terminal. That way, if I must take home time, I would be close sp they would ALWAYS be able to get me there!

"Programs, get your programs, HERE!!"

I'm holding out for the popcorn and peanuts!

…. Besides, the homecoming will be a bit sweater that way, eh?

Jopa

Are you saying that she'll give him the cold shoulder, or did you mean to say "SWEETER"?

This is EXACTLY what I am planning to do as well, with the exception of home time. The plan is to spend home time wherever I happen to be at the time I take it, and absorb some of the local color. I don't want, nor do I need a "permanent" home location.

Good luck to you, Randy!
